On February 27th I wrote that I noticed a sticker on the back of a car – Random Acts of Kindness. Last Sunday while out cycling I badly buckled the back wheel of my bike. I tried to fix the wheel but it was well buckled and now jammed against the frame. I had no movement in the wheel at all. I started to walk home carrying my bike.
Unknown to me a car had passed just after this incident happened and noticed I was struggling with the wheel of my bike. As I passed a house along my way home a young lady approached me and asked me if I was OK and had I far to travel to which I replied “only a more few kilometres (approx 6km). She said that she and her husband had just passed me on the road and noticed I had some issue with my bike. Her husband (John) then offered to put my bike in the boot of his car and drive me home. I accepted his very kind offer. I introduced myself and we chatted along the journey home talking of places we both knew and my afternoon of cycling. I was delighted with the lift home and the long walk it had saved me.
So I am delighted to be able to report that Random Acts of Kindness are still out there, thank you John and your family for your very help.
Who can you help today?
Great information! I’ve been looking for something like this for a while now. Thanks!
